Founded in 1985 as the “International Video Week,” the Biennial of Moving Images (BIM, as it is known by its initials in French) is one of the oldest and most important events in Europe devoted to artists’ films. From the start, the Biennial has highlighted the increasingly numerous and creative crosscurrents that exist between film, the contemporary arts and mass media. This year Argos has compiled for BIM two programmes with video essay work made over recent years. Disembodied Voices focuses on the use of voice over; further the work of The Otolith Group is being highlighted. Paul Willemsen will be in Geneva to introduce the programmes.
